The baby.

Wednesday, December 10, 2008

So I think today might go down as one of the strangest, yet greatest days of my life. I had another impromptu ultrasound- and not even from my own doctor!
I went with my sister in law Mara to her big ultra sound appointment where they measure the twins' body parts, make sure everything checks out- and determine the sex of both babies. I went because I wanted to be supportive of her & gus, and I wanted to learn what to expect later on down the road. Needless to say, it was extremely interesting- and very cool!
Well after Mara's ultrasound, the doctor heard that I was also pregnant- and he asked if I wanted to take a look at the baby. I felt a little weird just because this was Mara's big day- not mine...but with Mara's blessing- I hopped up onto the chair.
And without further ado- I give you....the Baby Burnell.


The first picture up top was measuring his heartbeat- 149 bpm. The second two are what the baby did after the doctor shook my stomach to get the baby moving. Needless to say, I don't think the baby was very happy to startled from his peaceful nap. But that's okay...it was still really cool to see him ( or her) moving and thrashing around.


This picture is actually my favorite- you can see his little budding ear with his nose, mouth, and eye. He (or she) also has their little legs crossed- SO CUTE!!
